Re: Sears Sony Blu-ray demo

Jack,

Where have you seen the lowest price on the Sony BDP-S1 on the internet? Best I've found was around $839. I believe I can get it for around $749 from my buddy. The PS3 is not a bad option as well, but I just can't get past the thought of not have a true Audo/Video dedicated piece as "sound" quality if very important to me while listening to CD's as well as this would most likely become my primary unit. The BDP-S1 utilizes discreet circuitry this is what I believe would set it apart from the PS3. IMO it would just be impossible to house Sony's Cell Broadband Engine AND the Blu-ray technologies together while maintaining great A/V (more Audio) while staying below the MSRP of $999 (like the BDP-S1) for the unit. I agree it would be kind of nice to have a game system/pc-internet/BD player all in one; plus the addtion of HD music (supposedly) early spring 2007, but I've become spoiled. Hey, look at my history; I bought the Sony 9000es as soon as it hit the street and I still love it today. Do you believe that the PQ in HD-DVD bests that of the Blu-ray?? hmmm. I've not heard this...my understanding is that both formats appear to be identical with the exception of course of the capacity of BD's.
